+JMJ Ash Wednesday February 17, 2010 We have settled into our new temporary home. Sister Mary Joseph had time to settle in before flying to Front Royal, Virginia to Christendom College for vocation outreach and visitation to our friends there. Her flight was cancelled due to the snow storm back there, but she was able to fly out and land safely 2 days later on February 12th.
Lent is meant to be a time of reflection on our life to see areas where we still need to be converted to the Lord and to turn away from impurity, possessiveness and egoism. Lent is an opportunity to begin with God’s help to die to such self-centeredness, selfishness and self-absorption!
What a perfect time to begin demolition and re-construction of our home! Construction is progressing rapidly as you can see in the photos.
